                             TUNNELL
                       Family Bible Record.

                             -------

     " The Bible was the property of Lady Ann Tunnell, who was
the mother of four sons, all of whom were clergymen.  One was a
soldier in the War for American Independence; another was a co-
worker with the sainted Bishop Asbury.
It is regretted that a portion of this record has been lost.  The
book was brought from Anderson Co. Tenn. to Edwardsville,
Illinois Territory, and in February 1819 to Carrollton, Ill.

     " Names of over eight thousand lineal descendants of Lady
Ann Tunnell are given on pages 127 to 169, inclusive, in Volume
Three, 'Notable Southern Families", which recently came off the
press.

                         Cordially yours,

                              Lucy M. Ball"

Feb. 1, 1927

     The present owner of above book is Miss Lucy M. Ball, 211
Caldwell Street, Jacksonville, Illinois.
